Through their many years as Top Producers, the Eagles have found that the foundation for continued success in the real estate industry is built upon AFFILIATION, NETWORKING, EDUCATION and EXPERIENCE.
AFFILIATION: The Eagles are not associated with a large local firm, but with Coldwell Banker Real Estate, a large international firm and the largest real estate firm in the United States, with over 62,000 agents! Coldwell Banker is well known throughout the United States for its affiliation with Cendant Mobility Relocation Company, one of the many tools to market homes to clients relocating to California.
NETWORKING: Continued success comes from networking and surrounding yourself with Top Producers who share their energy, knowledge, and experience, which helped them become successful. Jim and Polly are associated with the Northern California Top Producer Network, consisting of agents within the top 1% to 2% of Coldwell Banker nationwide. Like the Eagles, these agents are top professionals with expertise in handling all aspects of real estate. Their level of negotiating skills is evidenced by over twenty Billion Dollars in closed real estate volume.
EDUCATION: As in many industries, Real Estate is constantly changing. Education is a vital component to continued success. Jim and Polly take education quite seriously, both completing the Graduate of Realtors Institute (GRI), both have attained the Certified Residential Specialist designation (CRS) and both are Real Estate Brokers. The Eagles have their Bachelor of Science degrees in Business Administration, and bring strong financial and administrative backgrounds to their real estate business. Jim and Polly have over 400 hours of education in Real Estate Law, Real Estate Finance, Contracts and Exchanging.
EXPERIENCE: The Eagles have combined real estate experience of 47+ years. Jim has been an Expert Witness for Santa Clara County Superior Court. He served as the Secretary/Treasurer of the San Jose Board of Realtors in 1999. Jim was also a member of the Board of Directors for the California Association of Realtors in 1999. Both are members of the National Association of Realtors, California Association of Realtors, San Jose Board of Realtors, and South County Board of Realtors. Polly shares her extensive real estate expertise as an office "mentor" providing one-on-one training and mentoring for new Coldwell Banker agents joining the Morgan Hill office.
